"C" Melody Sax

I would like to find a neck and mouthpiece for an unusual C instrument. No dents or damage to the horn at all, case is in great shape & only one vaalve spring is missing. The neck male fitind diameter is at one inch. Understand from a store here that my quest may be futile. I hate to see such a neat instruments voice remain silent. Hope to hear from some positive feed back.

    C-Mel necks? I have a few. What brand is it? Finish? For a mouthpiece Beechler, Runyon and Morgan are making modern pieces for C-mels that use tenor reeds. Most old C-mel peices are very stuffy and the c-mel size reeds are hard to find and quite pricey! email me and I'll see if I've got a neck to fit your horn! [email protected]

      Hey Tbone, Do me a favor my friend, look in the Saxquest Vintage Sax forum, there is someone looking for a neck for their Conn Wonder Baritone..it's possible a fine Tar Heal tech like yourself might have just the ticket! :) Cheers & Thanks. Michael/Saxismyaxe.

        Oops, make that Tar "Heel". This site really needs a message edit feature!

          Hey Mike, Sorry but I sold the last wonder neck I had to Bariman (SOTW) but Luispa (SOTW) had one in silver plate on ebay and I think it didn't sell there.
